The Dollar

So here we are are, celebration has brought us together. Just as two kids pretending to live the dream in backyards across the USA. Here in the dorm of all dorms, at the college of all colleges, we come bearing gifts of spirit, joy, and happiness. Notre Dame and the vision of the Four Horsemen in an October Sky, against another overrated opponent. Wisconsin, and Barry's coming-of-age legacy against the Ghost-of-Christmas past and Joe Paterno. The weekend has simply already defined itself full of a tradition without equal. Five kids, from five different walks-of-life trying to chase the dream, with the hopes of one day finding the answer to the do's and don'ts of things.
Charlie and his boys, equipped with $40 million security chasing the dream of a Golden Dome and another National Title. Barry and his band of tricks, track champions and athletes equipped with a spirit section as large as Charlie's waistline along State Street trying to capture that dream for one last time. Ron Dayne came and went, but now, one man named Calhoun is vying at his own Cadillac Dream. The dream of NFL riches and fat contracts can wait, but for one man, the hope of Barry's last dance in State College water down the dream.
Campus' with lakes, Mendota and St. Mary's, coming together like a wave on a Fall Day to form the covalent bond leading to greener pastures and championships. The wait is over, the time is now for Charlie's opening act and Barry's last dance to come together and set the tone for the next generation of kids playing ball on Main Street.
A weekend in South Bend we will all never forget. To dry streaks, student sections, and fat rings, lets chase the dollar blowing in the wind along Main Street.
